Friday Night Pizza and Pumpkins

 I make this homemade pizza that is super easy. It tastes good and is really cheap... I make the crust with this recipe. I just use what leftovers we have..left over spaghetti sauce, cheddar cheese, pepperoni (on Ronnie's half) and green peppers from the garden. It's different every time. Yum...but I wish we had olives...

 Then we carved our pumpkin and watched Nightmare before Christmas...good times.

Can't carve a pumpkin without roasting the seeds!

What did you do on Friday date night?

Race Day

For Ronnie's birthday (back in June), I got him a gift to drive a Nascar racecar on the Richmond Raceway. The day finally came and it was an exciting one. The weather was perfect and Ronnie couldn't wait to get behing the wheel! I even got to ride in a truck around the track once. I was convinced we were going to tip over and we were only going 80! I can't imagine driving a car at higher speeds!

Ronnie has a need for speed so this was a perfect outlet. I'm pretty sure he had a blast.

 

A clip....

After the race we met up with good friends for a yummy lunch.

Then we stopped by Gander Mountain for a little gift card shopping and headed home...in time for the Oklahoma game. Ronnie's perfect day :)

A Little Nature

Ronnie and I took a break from house and yard work today and took a hike at NorthWest River Park. Nature does a lot for the soul.

Crossing my fingers for a new camera for Christmas!

Front "Yard"

I don't know if you can call our front yard an actual "yard" but it is what it is.

This is the front the day we moved in.

We've made quite a few changes since then.

On Labor Day, my mom came over for a couple hours and helped me tear out the bushes that were there and paint a line where I would make my beds. I didn't mind the actual bushes that were out front but in the winter there was NOTHING there. It looked sad.

We bought a rocker bench to enjoy our little porch. The weather has been perfect lately!

I hope to borrow my dad's power washer in the spring....that will help the dirty porch and walkway.

I also killed the millions of weeds and planted some new grass seeds. They're starting to grow!! I'll be planting some pansies soon too.

Well that's our tiny front yard. :)
